I Am Happy, So Happy, Especially Grateful

Sometimes you just can't do it your way.....


I'm so happy for my soul

it lets me remember that when I wandered
with no place to go I had a helping hand,
it held me close and never let me go.
 

I'm so happy for my soul because when I wondered who it was, he revealed himself, healed me and saved me at the same time.
 

I'm so happy that I know his name and when I called my Lord, he answered.


I'm so happy my Lord never leaves me out, he comes to me telling me what he wants of me, and I answer, anything you ask of me I'll do.
 

I'm happy when I do whatever he wants right,
but I am especially happy, especially grateful
when he holds me in his grace for the things I
know I got wrong trying to do it my way.
 

Then he comes around and allows a better start to get to the  finish line.... 

You see I've learned that valuable lesson its not my way if  I'm going his way, but by going his way I can cross over the finish line, covered in grace.

So fine a poem telling the truth of God's grace and goodness. I follow you all the way in this one and it is my belief just as you said. You cannot do it alone, you need your maker to guide you and things go much better and turn out good for you.
